What if Lucretia were just as dog crazy as Magnus?
What if “No dogs on the moon” was a poorly timed addition to a century long joke?
“No dogs in my lab, Lucretia.”
“No dogs near my plants, Magnus.”
“No dogs in my kitchen, Lucretia.”
“How did that dog even get there, Magnus?! I can’t believe “no dogs in the air vents” is a phrase that is actually coming out of my mouth.“
“Magnus. Lucretia. No dogs on the Starblaster. Period.”
“No dogs while we’re looking for the light.”
“For Pan’s sake, no dogs while we’re trying to be sneaky!”
What if someone asked, in the early days of the BoB, if they could bring their dog with them and Lucretia reflexively said “no dogs on the moon” and instantly regretted it because oh shit, I’m in charge and people actually do what I say.
And she’s just so upset because she was joking and everyone took her seriously and she can’t take it back because it would be unprofessional and now there will never be any dogs on the moon.
